Weird. amazon.com[^] has almost 1300 one-star negative reviews, all slating the SecuRom DRM. amazon.co.uk[^] contains just one review, a 5-star positive review. Is Amazon blocking negative reviews in the UK?
A few years ago, Amazon (US) was deleting negative reviews. A very negative review of a non-fiction book I wrote was deleted along with other reviews of the same book that made the same points I had made. In the end, there were only sickening reviews that all looked planted. I'm sure Amazon still does this for select publishers who have enough clout to cause problems.
